Pencil2D

Pencil2D is a free and open source animation/drawing software for Windows, macOS, Linux, and FreeBSD. It lets you create traditional hand-drawn animation (cartoon) using both bitmap and vector graphics. Pencil2D is a community-driven project developed entirely by volunteers and we are always looking for more helping hands! There are many different ways to contribute, so anyone can help regardless of their background. For more information, please see the Contributing section below. Nightly builds are bleeding-edge versions of Pencil2D that include the most recent fixes and features. They are not as stable as the official releases, but they are a great way to test the latest features and help us find bugs. We encourage you to visit our [User Manual][user-man] for a quick guide for novice users, then play around with the program – it's fun! After you feel a little more comfortable with the basics, check out these [tutorials][pencil-tutorials] provided by Pencil developers and users. While some of these resources might reference previous versions of Pencil2D, the underlying concepts are still the same. Interested in contributing to Pencil2D? There are many ways to help.
